Panduit NKFPL48 Flat Patch Panel 48 Port

Product Description

The PANDUIT NKFPL48 is a flat 48-port patch panel designed for structured cabling installations in network distribution frames and equipment racks. It provides a central termination and management point for horizontal cabling runs in data centers, server rooms, and commercial network closets. The panel ships with labeling provisions, allowing technicians to document port assignments directly on the face of the panel. Installation is typically handled by low-voltage cabling contractors, network technicians, or licensed electricians working on structured cabling systems.

The NKFPL48 is suited for high-density rack environments where a flat, non-angled panel profile is preferred. The 48-port configuration supports large cable plant terminations within a standard rack unit footprint, making it a practical choice for core distribution frames and intermediate distribution frames in commercial and enterprise network infrastructure. It integrates into standard EIA 19-inch rack systems commonly found in telecom rooms and data center deployments.

Key Features

• 48-port flat panel layout for high-density structured cabling terminations
• Includes label provisions for port identification and documentation
• Flat face profile fits standard 19-inch EIA equipment racks and cabinets
• Single unit quantity per package for straightforward procurement

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation component for standard 19-inch EIA rack systems used in structured cabling and network distribution applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage cabling technician or licensed electrician in accordance with TIA-568 structured cabling standards and applicable local codes. Power down any active equipment in the rack before mounting or terminating cables to avoid unintended network disruption. Secure the panel to the rack rails using appropriate rack-mounting hardware before beginning port terminations. Verify all port labeling is complete before final cable management is applied.
